In Elche, rain lingered through the night and the Green-and-White squad chose a lighter session on the gym floor after a morning in which the Martinez Valero pitch was avoided by the players. The recent game against Getafe also limited time for intense training, so the focus shifted to recovery and maintaining fitness. The coaching staff, led by Beccacece, opted for gym-based work rather than a rain-soaked turf session.

The coach is not unsettled by the forecast rain ahead of the Sevilla clash. If the pitch permits normal ball movement and the surface stays playable, the plan remains unchanged. The weather can add a dramatic edge to matches, something the squad accepts. The preference remains to play under sun, but rainy conditions are handled as part of the game experience.

Injury and squad status for the upcoming match remain a concern. Omar Mascarell is in the final stage of his rehabilitation from an anterior thigh muscle injury suffered late in the previous game with Celta Vigo. He is expected to be available again soon, though his return date may shift depending on recovery pace. The same uncertainty surrounds the rest of the players listed as doubtful for the season’s closing stretch, including the last day against Athletic Bilbao and Cadiz, respectively.

Jose Angel Carmona, who previously saw his role diminished after accumulating yellow cards, will not be eligible to play against the team to which he belongs, as he is on loan from Sevilla. The Sevillian defender has endured a knee injury since early April and has spent significant time sidelined. Even a rapid comeback this season would be difficult given the time lost and ongoing healing process.

On the day ahead of the Sevilla fixture, Helibelton Palacios and Diego Gonzalez were also unavailable due to muscle problems, with the medical staff confirming their chance to feature would be limited. The coach noted during a pre-match press briefing that these four players will miss the upcoming game. Omar Mascarell is unlikely to be cleared, while Palacios, Gonzalez, and Carmona continue their individual recoveries. Time between matches remains short, and optimism is tempered, yet the team will monitor every hour in the days leading to the contest against Sevilla.

In summary, Elche faces Sevilla with several injury concerns and a need to balance recovery with competitive readiness. The squad’s rhythm will be tested as they seek a positive result on home soil, while supporters anticipate the broadcast schedule for fans across Canada and the United States who will follow the action on the 36th matchday of LaLiga Santander. The team’s approach combines disciplined preparation, careful rehabilitation, and a readiness to adapt to weather and pitch conditions, all while pursuing a favorable outcome in front of their home crowd.
